also: this seems to not be the case and is a byproduct of the repeated emails I am receiving
changelog
v2.0 - 12 Feb 2013

That is a strange one, a setting from this mod's options wouldnt do this. Instant email notification was actually present in version 1, i just forgot to document it, so added it to the change log to highlight it better for the guys upgrading...

Try running the repair and optimize wizard (AdminCP > Maintenance > Repair / Optimize Tables), i dont know if that will fix something for you or not but its the only thing i can think of doing, the mod dose a very simple database query and then performs an action based on the returned results, the results will be a 0 or a number above, there really is'nt any other way (that i know of) for the script/mod to think there is items waiting, it only knows this from something in the database telling it there is items waiting.

By default vB treats anything "subscription" based as a lower priority, so these types of email always go to the email queue, you could install a MOD to stop this (if one exists) or you could turn off the "Mailqueue System" (AdminCP > Settings > Options > Email Options

Use Mailqueue System
When enabled, subscription emails generated by your site will be processed in batches to lessen the load on your server. Account activation, lost passwords and other vital emails are sent instantly regardless of this setting. If your site has low traffic, subscription emails may be delayed.

I'm thinking of making another MOD that puts Reported Posts into the mod que at the point of those posts being reported, its really simple and easy to do. If a user reports a post, then they are asking for a member of staff to review that post, so it makes sense to me that it should happen that way.
